Today I am joined on the podcast by Carlow's own, MACRUA!We will primarily be discussing MACRUA's latest single, released on the 20th of September. Titled “Intro to My Mindset” it marks an interesting and exciting shift in genre mixing clever lyrics with equally memorable and catchy melodic motifs.Inspired by heavy hitters Kendrick Lamar, Childish Gambino and Eminem the track tackles MACRUA’s fears of going deeper into the music industry, with his goal to retain his humility. Sure to resonate with the Indie rap massive, the track will also appeal to those who appreciate and admire genuine musical talentOn top of all this, we'll be about MACRUA's earliest influences, his musical theatre background, Tenacious D and many fun avenues this conversation went down.
